>That one's about someone who acted as the father for almost five years before suddenly questioning it. It's not about paying for children, it's about seeing a responsibility you took on through to the end.

your argument is absurd. there is a world of difference between "taking a responsibility" wittingly and being misled or defrauded into it.

it is particularly absurd in this context, given that even victims of statutory rape can be forced to pay child support, even if they never had any contact with the child and assumed no fucking responsibility whatsoever.

>Mandatory DNA testing at birth would solve a lot of these, and bring in new problems.

yes. "problems" such as the state having to assist the mother financially, because 95 out of 100 men would not stick around. that is exactly my point.
